Key Takeaways:

  • Corporations surpass ETFs in Bitcoin accumulation.

  • Bitcoin adoption accelerates among public companies.

This shift signals growing institutional trust in Bitcoin as a reserve asset, with notable influence on market dynamics.

Public corporations’ Bitcoin purchases outpace new supply by 3.3 times in 2025, a landmark year for corporate engagement in the Bitcoin market. Bitwise reports show corporations accumulated over 196,000 BTC, vastly exceeding the mined supply of 60,000 BTC.

More than 70 companies now have public Bitcoin treasury strategies, elevating corporate holdings to record highs. These acquisitions, exemplified by a combined 3.28% of Bitcoin’s fixed supply, trigger a substantial demand-supply imbalance.

The aggressive purchase behavior, particularly significant in Q1 2025, induced Bitcoin’s market value surge. Publicly traded firms hold 688,000 BTC, worth $57 billion with a notable price of $82,445 per Bitcoin.

Regulatory changes, like the FASB’s allowance for fair market value reporting, paved the way for greater corporate treasury engagements. According to Michael Saylor, the shift signifies a long-term strategic rethinking of financial reserves.
